How to Disable Low Disk Space Checks in Windows
Disabling low disk space checks in Windows is easy and usually takes less than a few minutes. Windows will no longer warn you about low disk space on any of your hard drives. The steps for opening Registry Editor are a little different in some versions of Windows, so follow that link above if you need specific help. However, no matter which version of Windows you’re using, this command, when used from the Run dialog box (WIN+R) or Command Prompt, will open it right up: Change the name of the DWORD to NoLowDiskSpaceChecks by typing it exactly as shown, and then hitting the Enter key.
Things You Can Do When There’s Low Disk Space
If you’re disabling the low disk space alerts but not doing anything to actually clean up, your storage device may very well fill up faster than you anticipate. Here are some suggestions for when a hard drive is running low on disk space: What’s great about using some of those programs, such as IObit Uninstaller, is that they’ll not only delete the program files to clear up space but also clear out any residual registry items and caches for a full uninstall. Local backup software is a great option if you have another hard drive with the available storage to hold your large files. An online backup service is another option where your data is stored online; some even have unlimited space options. If you don’t need your files backed up regularly, but instead just a handful of large items moved off of the full drive, consider a free cloud storage service.
